Blackened Tilapia

For what it's worth, this is how I do blackened fish.
I coat both sides with the desired amount of blackening seasoning. On the second side, I smear a layer of very soft butter.

I drop them in the hot CI skillet, butter side down and leave them for 3 minutes on the first side and then flip them for 2 minutes on the second side.
This is more bronzed than blackened, because I rushed the temp and only got to 600 before I started cooking, but it was PDG anyway!

You must have been hungry then. Those look fine. A lot of people prefer the bronze vs blackened. I like hot dogs and toast blackened too. :laugh:
